Trilogy® Electrostatic Spray Systems

Two Atomization Technologies in a Single, High-Performance Electrostatic Gun System

Nordson Trilogy spray systems are designed with coating versatility in mind. Featuring two atomization technologies –
air spray and high volume, low pressure (HVLP) – Trilogy systems deliver superior application performance with
a variety of substrates, coatings and part profiles.
Trilogy electrostatic spray systems are available in manual or automatic gun models that incorporate
the latest in engineering and design materials. As a result, you’ll achieve many benefits that
decrease the cost of ownership and enhance your bottom line:
• The highest kV in the industry – 93 kV – increasing transfer efficiency,
reducing material costs and improving part finish.
• Tough and durable gun bodies minimize maintenance
costs and downtime.
• Well balanced, handle-forward gun design ensures
operator comfort for better productivity.

Maximum Transfer Efficiency and Control

Trilogy guns are the highest kV guns available in the industry
today. At 93 kV, they provide superior transfer efficiency and paint
wrap. With the strongest electrostatic load lines, voltage remains
consistently high – even as gun-to-part distances change – ensuring
high efficiency coverage. In addition, Automatic Current Limiting lets
you customize the charge to coat specific part profiles, improving
coverage across the part and into contours and recesses.
With a Trilogy system, you also achieve extreme fan pattern control
from four to 20 inches. Equipped with Nordson air caps, Trilogy guns
produce fine particle atomization at lower
pressures for improved paint-to-part transfer
with minimal overspray. The guns also feature
large diameter air ports for more air energy at the
tip, which allows you to atomize even the most viscous
coatings. With fast, easy air adjustments that can accommodate
varying part configurations, you’ll realize greater fan pattern
control and consistent coverage. The increased transfer efficiency
and fan pattern control saves you money on coatings and rejects.

Gun Models Designed for Durability

Trilogy gun bodies are constructed of tough, polyamide materials for
long life under punishing manufacturing environments. The advanced
bellows packing design allows for consistent, trouble-free operation
and fast routine maintenance. The cartridges prevent fluid leakage,
minimizing the risk of carbon tracking and loss of electrostatic power.
In addition, single-piece multipliers are positioned inside the gun
and contain no fragile moving parts for longer life. The use of durable
materials for air caps and fluid tips provides exceptional field strength
for long life.
 Ergonomic Design for Painter Comfort and Productivity
The Trilogy gun design provides both balance and comfort to minimize
operator fatigue and maintain consistent coverage from part to part. The well-
balanced, handle-forward design equally distributes gun weight over the hand
for comfortable handling and maneuverability. Easy access to precise controls
at the painter’s fingertips allows the operator to make fast, easy adjustments,
all while maintaining production pace and delivering quality finishes.

IPS-20 Power Supply

The new IPS-20 Automatic Electrostatic System Controller utilizes proven
electrostatic technology for the control, DC power and monitoring functions
of a single automatic liquid spray gun. It is retrofittable to existing Nordson
liquid electrostatic IPS type spray systems, and can be set up with an
external PLC to be used with multiple spray guns.

Trilogy System Features and Benefits

• Wide range of aircaps and fluid tips for consistent and repeatable
atomization quality in various applications.
• The highest kV in the industry – 93 kV – reduces material
waste costs.
• Handle forward design provides better balance and improved
operator comfort.
• Automatic current limiting allows for greater control of charging
which translates to better part coverage whatever the part profile
• Quick-flush fluid passages for ease of cleaning and maintenance.
• Rugged gun bodies minimize maintenance costs and downtime.
• More than 50 fluid tip and air cap combinations for even greater
flexibility.
• FM and CE approvals for electrostatic safety.
